Let me qualify that statement,
Under the umbrella of aesthetics, as i sense it(" the middle and the two
extremes values) lie all potential subjective choices where one may be
"unique" pleasure to one ,but that same one displeasure to another.

Is'nt that

Not for me. You've suggested this before, Mando -- that all
sensation is
aesthetic. It seems to me this quasi-pantheistic notion obliterates
the
distinction between aesthetic experience and all sorts of daily,
hum-drum
experiences like this very typing that I'm doing. Sure, you can
probably point
at
aspects common to all, but I take the point of studying aesthetics
to be to
identify what is unique to aesthetic experience.
